Between my health and my computer’s I have not been writing as often as I’d like Today’s edition will be about my computer’s well-being. The power cord had issues. First it had to be positioned just right. I tried to buy a new one on Wednesday when I was at Best Buy but they were […]
On Friday I went to an ultimate home game, No Fuss and Feathers Traveling All-Stars and Motor Kings at Rockwood Music Hall Stage 3. A band made up of four good friends, at the venue where I am often greeted by name, and an audience filled with friends.
Today’s Wise Madness is about me taking care of my physical health and how that bodes well for my mental health
I’m an idiot. Eddie Barbash, the sax player in of Stay Human, The Late Show house band led by Jon Batiste has spend the summer hiking the entire length of the Appalachian Trail. I know Eddie from his days with the Tres Amigos, and try and catch him whenever he has a gig of his […]
I better get on this. I have to get out and see the psychiatrist today. I did something different, I ate breakfast before writing. Let’s see how I do with a tummy full of bacon. I was born and lived most of my life in Queens. I now live in the Bronx. My dream was […]
I’m going through my morning checklist. I have not finished the only other item, wasting time, but I’m going to start blogging anyway.

I don’t have that much time so I’m going to blast away and write about yesterday without much thought and see how that works out. If it’s short it’s short. I have therapy on Fridays at 2:45; I usually schedule my psychiatrist appointments immediately afterward but that means I’m often rushed going to whatever my […]
I’m well known on the group for not liking Dawes, Jackson Brown, and most other musicians with Jackson in the name, Mahalia and Bumper are two exceptions, Someone asked who else I hate.
Emily started as a classical oboist and still plays it at shows. I decided the world needs an oboe joke and to fill the need myself.
I’m going to write about values and ideals that I’ve had since childhood and this album evokes them, Dar evokes them, Falcon Ridge evokes them. I’m addressing this to the people I love that share my love of the album, the artist, and the festival, and share those values, but whose blind spots I see. I’m not saying that they, or should I say, you, have blind spots. That’s pointless, we all have blind spots. I’m in the passenger seat adjusting the side view mirror for you. You’d do the same for me.
